New catheter aims to better predict heart surgery outcomes
NCT ID NCT07500025
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a special catheter that measures how well the right side of the heart is working in 8 people with severe tricuspid regurgitation (a leaky heart valve). Participants are already scheduled for a procedure to fix the valve. The goal is to see if this tool can help doctors better understand patient risk before treatment.
